The previously
announced budget meeting between the four legislative leaders and Gov. Rauner,
set to take place on Nov. 18, has been postponed.
Speaker Madigan
announced late last week he would be unable to attend the meeting because of a
family funeral in another state. To allow the Speaker time with his family and
to ensure that all legislative leaders are represented during budget
discussions, Gov. Rauner rescheduled the meeting for Dec. 1.
